I sat down maybe for 1 hour and asked for another wifi ticket (they go by a ticket system and by the way I do go here a lot) and they told me something along the lines that they are not a library and I need to buy something else. It was so odd. I have worked there before for hours and never had issues.. I think the comment wording bugged me more than anything else.. it was one of the guys at the front that has worked there a while (not the owner).. maybe having a bad day?

Went here for burgers from Butters Burgers and beer and enjoyed all of it!…read more The area to order food was separate than the beer and I got the food, and my partner ordered the beer. There was plenty of places to sit inside and lots of open air as well as outdoor seating in a parklet and along the side of the building. Both the beers my partner and I wanted were tapped out (or were member beers) and the bartender suggested two others and they were really delicious. I had the Saison, which were the flavors I was looking for. My partner god the Florid and Horrid and really liked it a lot, so big thanks do the bartender for being friendly and suggesting some great beers. The impossible smash burger was delicious, tots were great, would be back for more beer and food next time I am in Napa.

Good beer and food, great service. We came on a Sunday right when it opened and were the first…read moreones there. Shortly after it got SUPER busy. Shocked at how fast service was with just one person behind the bar. Their selection of beers was bleak as they had some issues with the kegs. Although the selection was limited, the hubby and I still had a lot of great beers. Parking was easy to find; there are two smaller lots, and lots of street parking. Kids and furry friends are welcome. The indoors is big and there's some outdoor seating. Would definitely come back again.

Immediately when you walk in this quaint and well placed brewery has a welcoming and open feeling…read more Most of the seating is on the patio that overlooks a park directly connected to the Napa river. Located next to the Oxbow I highly recommend taking a quick detour to stop by this brewery. I tried the War of Art IPA, and while I'm a pretty big fan of their beer, this one stood out as a crisp, easy, drinkable IPA that quenches your thirst and cools you off n a warm day. The bartender was extremely helpful and attentive and kept the line moving fast. I order the kale Caesar salad and it was pleasantly delicious. If you like Caesar dressing I recommend ordering an extra side but I found the light dressing to work really well with the Cale and accoutrement.

Heard lots about this place, so I went for dinner. The place is huge with a nice outdoor lounge…read morespace, and it has good potential. The service and food, however, fell quite short. There was little attention given to cleaning the tables even when the turnover wasn't that fast. Multiple groups arrived at tables that had not been cleaned. You order yourself from the QR code on the table, so for many this is convenient. The food took forever to arrive, and when it did, nothing tasted good unfortunately. The chicken on the pizza tasted bad, and the wings and fries were average at best. They do have a good beer selection. I would go back only if I want to get beer and maybe simple bar food with a group.

We stopped by here on a Wednesday night and had the back patio all to ourselves. When we walked…read moreback inside to close out our tab, we saw a full-fledged bingo night underway. It looked like a lot of fun. This place definitely feels like a local hangout. There's a decent selection of beer on tap, of course. There's also a bar bites menu. We opted for the coney dogs ($12), which were huge and were smothered in a sweet chili. Very good. We also shared a plate of the dirty chips ($12), which are basically nachos made with kettle chips instead of tortilla chips. Also a good choice. If pub fare isn't your thing, the bartender said they don't object to you bringing your own food. Trade is located across the street from OxBow so there are plenty of food options if you want to go that route.

The nearest dispensary of frosty adult beverages was Trade Brewing where I found a decently comfortable space, free wifi and a tasty brew. I was here for 90 minutes and in that time, I participated in two Facebook arguments and wrote four Yelp reviews while sipping away at two of Trade's delicious beers. Good stuff! This is a busy neighborhood and I was very fortunate to find a street parking space almost right in front. As the day moved into dinner hours, it got packed. When I left at 5:30, someone swooped in and grabbed my parking space as soon as I moved out. [Review 17569 overall - 365 in California - 1087 of 2022.]

I was staying near by at a hotel and my partner and I discovered this amazing bar and record shop…read moreas we were walking to dinner. First, the decor is amazing with art everywhere and records to the right and bar to the left. All of the furniture and fixtures feel very intentional and cool. It has a welcoming vibe to it that is great for locals and visitors alike. We stopped by on a Saturday night and had one low abv cocktail Surreus tea, which was light and refreshing and Two Earls One Cup, which came in the cutest tea cup and saucer with a cookie on the side. Service was really friendly and attentive. We even came back the following day to buy a record and a band was about to play. Really recommend!

She was super attentive and kind. Wish I would've caught their names. Snacks are great, I'm vegan so had the pretzel, hubs got the chip and dip - loved. Hubby and I are huge vinyl junkies (he's a DJ - "DJ Swift") so was fun going through their vinyl collection. This is a must when you're in the Napa hood!

Visited in August on a Monday and it was busy, but not as busy as I have heard it gets. We reviewed…read morethe menu and stood in a quick line to order food, get a seat with your number, etc. We ordered the Chilaquiles and Mulita Chorizo egg dish. Both were yummy, with lots of sauce, a spicy hot sauce for the Chilaquiles, and a ton of cilantro. We also ordered one of the dark Mexican lagers, which they brew themselves, which was really delicious. We also ordered churro donut holes, Concha stuffed with Arroz con leche and another with Guava. Everything was delicious. The restaurant itself is located in the older adobe in Napa and so it is rich with history and Mexican California beauty. Everyone is warm, helpful, welcoming, and the food comes out quickly! Please visit this family owned, wonderful restaurant.

The abuelas must have taken some time off for the Labor Day weekend. This is the only explanation…read morethat makes sense for how the taste of the food changed from 2 weeks prior. My wife and I were in Napa 2 weeks ago and heard about this restaurant from Check Please Bay Area television program. The lines were long both times we visited, but we knew about this before going. This is the oldest building in Napa and limited in size. The parking lot is also limited so allow for extra time in case you have to park further away and walk. On our first trip we had the special tacos of the day, side of beans, and the flan french toast. Wife had the mimosa flight and I had the beer flight. The food was excellent. We could not stop raving about the food to one another. The rice and beans alone would have compelled us to visit again (and they did, unfortunately). The tacos were flavorful and juicy. We had no negative notes for the flan french toast. My wife enjoyed the mimosa flight, but would have liked the mango mimosa in the flight to have had a little less juice. I enjoyed my beer flight as well. I was curious about their in house beers and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed them. Fast forward 2 weeks. My wife and I had another planned trip to Napa and we made it a point to build time in the schedule to revisit La Cheve. We arrived about the same time in the day as our first visit (2 pm) and waited patiently in line. We ordered the steak tacos, rice and beans (of course) and the guacamole, because it must be out of this world like everything that they make there. Wife ordered the beermosa and I had their in house American Dream beer. The steak in the tacos were very flavorful but nothing out of the ordinary. The rice and beans did not taste as good as the first time. We talked about how good the rice was the first time and how we could just eat the rice without anything else. This time around, not so much. The rice and beans lacked flavor. Oh and the poor guacamole. The only flavor there was lime. The guacamole was over limed with chunks of onion, tomato and was in dire need of salt. My wife took one bite and refused to go back to it. The drinks were fine. In the end, the flavor of the food went from a solid 5 stars to a 0. I gave a 2 star rating because of the downward trend versus 3 stars given the 2.5 star average. Overall, I'm not sure if the 5 star experience or the 0 star visit was the anomaly. It's a significant price to pay to find out given the 30+ minutes waiting in line, the limited parking and a lost meal opportunity in Napa where there are many excellent dining options.

Loved it! MEAL: 1. Diablo shrimp - so amazingly delicious! Comes with a piece of baguette. Slightly wish the shrimps were hotter in temp but nothing major 2. Crispy pork belly- omg so so good! This is what I came for and I simply was not disappointed! It came with some shredded lettuce and Asian sauce that was just chef's kiss 3. Side Caesar salad - this one was just okay. The dressing just didn't taste ceasar-y enough for me. I'll skip it next time. SERVICE: absolutely phenomenal! Everyone was so unbelievably nice and attentive. I got complimented twice for my sweater. I mean, you all know how to make a girl feel special MUSIC: 10/10 I will 100% be back

The food was definitely the highlight. The steak frites were cooked well and full of flavor, and the fish and chips were also excellent.

Been coming here with my pup to watch the World Cup games and this spot is the vibe!…read more A few things I've had over my last few visits and my thoughts on each 1. Steak frites: steak was meh but perfect medium rare. Fries were deliciously crispy for steak fries 2. Fried chicken sandwhich: very mid 3. Chicken wings: I did dry rub with the sauces on the side. I liked the ranch with the umami, but im not a fan of the smoked chicken. 4. Burrata: mid 5. Poke tostadas: best thing I've had on their menu and they don't have it anymore. I wanted to cry when they told me 6. Salted caramel pudding with shortbread pieces and macadamia nuts, hold the nuts: absolutely delicious dessert, very sweet! 7. Smash burger: pretty good. I'd get two patties next time Drinks 1. Float the River: hold the grapefruit. It was boozy s as heck 2. Dirty Shirley: decent 3. Cucumber drink: This was an off menu drink they used to make for me and then stopped making it. Maybe they ran out of cucumber? Idk. But bring them back! Wow I really been coming here for a minute. Love the vibes. Great spot to watch the World Cup games. They welcome dogs. Sometimes they bring my pup treats, sometimes not. I appreciate when they do.

She made me a great ol' fashion with her choice. Since I'm originally from Kentucky, I was a little skeptical of a distillery in Napa Valley. However, I was pleasing surprised that they offered a whiskey flight that was actually great. I'll be returning for other things...FOR SURE!

This was a pleasant find- as it was something that felt uniquely different to the area. While…read morefollowing their social media, they advertised a new spring cocktail- Wabi Sabi. With a wasabi and fennel infused vodka, it was too unique not to be curious about. Upon arriving and looking over the menu, SEVERAL cocktails stood out to me as intriguing to try. I started with the Wabi Sabi which was as interesting as it sounded. While I didn't pick up on fennel, you do pick up on the wasabi, but in the most subtle of ways. Think maybe lime/ginger sparkling water with just a hint of spice. Refreshing and different for sure. I also tried the Mucha Lucha w/ cilantro infused Siete Leguas Blanco, chorizo infused mezcal and cubes made of hot sauce that make the drink have a bit more of a kick as you allow them to melt. I did the HH chips and guac which was also accompanied with a tasty Chipotle sauce. Damn good actually. It'd be excellent served in a variety of ways. The deviled eggs aren't going to blow your mind, but I like that you get 4 different ones- and simply because I love eggs, I'd order them again. (They just wouldn't be a dish that brings me back). The bartender was great- helpful and attentive, even as more people began to filter in for an early afternoon. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Napa to check out some other menu options.
